[Dune-devel] Replace Dune C++11 by plain C++11

Hi Martin!

When the costumers see that other vendors have better 
products,
they might switch. Hopefully IBM will feel the same pressure.
Competition is good for business.

At least I got a bunch of deprecation warnings when compiling
Dune. Ergo, at least Clang included the singelton header.

"It is likely that afterwards there will be a 3.0 release,
which may introduce a few non-backward-compatible changes."

As I changed the version number myself, the version number
might lack proper core-developer voting legitimation.

Sounds good, but I doubt you'll get enough feedback and 
helping
developer hands.
